Delta Air Lines
Resources and Advice Focused for Pilots of Delta Air Lines and their Families
Delta pilot families have access to several retirement savings options, including your company 401(k), Market Based Cash Balance Plan (MBCBP), and Mega Backdoor Roth. Due to the complexity of these plans, company contributions, and contribution limits, it’s important for you to understand which combination is right for your specific goals.
In addition to retirement planning, we also help Delta pilot families navigate the complex health benefit options and evaluate life insurance choices—such as the Group Variable Universal Life (GVUL)—to ensure your coverage aligns with your family’s needs.
At Leading Edge, we go beyond helping you understand these benefits—we guide you in executing a plan that supports your long-term goals with clarity and confidence.
We also offer investment management for your Delta 401(k) through BrokerageLink at Fidelity, helping you stay on course with your retirement strategy.
Navigate Health Emergencies with Confidence
Aviation professionals face unique stressors – especially when it comes to maintaining their medical certification. Even minor health issues can lead to major financial consequences if you’re not properly prepared. As aviation families ourselves, we understand the stakes and the stress. Pilots have several ways to protect their income and their families from the financial impact of health emergencies. These include:
Short-term disability insurance
Long-term disability insurance
Loss of license coverage
Accrued sick time
Emergency savings
We work with pilot families to evaluate their options and create a tailored plan that fits their unique needs. And when a health emergency does occur, we’re here to help you navigate the financial side—so you can focus on recovery.
